Stochastic differential equations with R school

At the Division of Statistics and Machine Learning, Department of Computer and Information Science, Linköping University, 14th-19th May 2020 we will be hosting a school concerning stochastic differential equations and the YUIMA R package (Simulation and Inference for SDEs and Other Stochastic Processes, https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/yuima/index.html). The lectures will be given by members of the YUIMA team ( https://yuimaproject.com/ ).

Advanced Bayesian Learning, 7.5 credits

This is an advanced course in Bayesian statistics for PhD students in statistics, computer science, the engineering sciences and other related fields.
The course is divided into 4 contemporary topics in Bayesian analysis, and the choice of topics can vary from year to year depending on the research frontier. Students can pick and choose among the topics and will be given 2 credits for each selected topic.
The planned topics for the current year are:

1. Gaussian Processes with Applications
2. Bayesian Nonparametrics
3. Variational Inference

PhD course in Econometrics, 15 ECTS credits, spring 2021

All lectures are expected to be streamed live online, through Zoom. Apart from traditional white-board lectures, there will also be computer classes to ensure a strong connection to empirical econometric modelling.  
We will be following the book Econometric analysis: 8th Edition. W. H. Greene closely throughout the course. The exam will consist of a number of home assignment involving theoretical matters as well as empirical analyses. Students who have not yet applied to the course should do this asap, directly to the course coordinator (see contact info below).

Some asymptotic methods in statistical inference

The aim is to provide some theory concerning asymptotic methods of statistics and probability with applications to inference problems. Knowledge of measure theory is not needed. Basic convergence concepts and results (with proofs) such as the Lindeberg-Lévy central limit theorem should have been covered in previous courses.

Approximate Bayesian Computation

Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) is an increasingly popular inference paradigm in applications where traditional (Bayesian or frequentist) inference is difficult because the likelihood function is e.g. computationally costly to evaluate or unavailable in closed, tractab- le form. In the course, we will start by briefly studying traditional Bayesian inference and different kinds of simulation-based inference methods in general.
